NEMO Resolve 15 L Endless Promise Technical Active Pack: $120 (25% Off)
This is a lightweight, streamlined bag with an extra-tough build. The NEMO Resolve 15 L Endless Promise Technical Active pack is ready for quick ascents up and over rough terrain. Overall, the bag’s layout is familiar: a panel-load main compartment, wide shoulder straps, water bottle pockets, and removable compression straps. What really makes it stand out is the materials.
It is made from CERO fabric, which has a tear strength double or triple that of the industry standard. It’s also 20 times more water-resistant than comparable packs. Another unique feature is the CCubed cushioning, which is mostly air, that’s body-mapped around the usual sweat zones. This cushion allows for more airflow than closed-cell foam, which doesn’t breathe.
This pack is also part of NEMO’s Endless Promise program, which means once the bags are beyond repair, they can be returned to the brand to be completely recycled.
